In September, I bought my first and only Festiva. Here is the story on that...

It seems that a lot of Festy owners name their cars. The previous owners of mine informed me that her name was Genevieve. I love OCMS, so for that reason alone, my family decided that the name would stick.

On 9/26, I finally got it running, thanks to a borrowed distributor from Nate. The next day, I drove it to Nashville and back (1100 miles round trip). Since then, I've done nothing but put gas and oil in it and drive it 7k miles. I can't believe how much I like the stupid little car.
Last night I ordered the rest of what I need to put the Advance suspension together. Today I talked to a guy selling an xr2 and told him I'd take it. I found some rx7 wheels that I need to pick up this weekend.
I might be putting the cart before the horse by starting this thread right now, as I've got a crazy amount of work to do before I can even start on my swap. But maybe if I put this out there in public, it will keep me motivated. And maybe I'll post pics of some of the other garbage I'm working on in the meantime, in case anyone cares.
